Yes, I sometimes do. I use 7mind for it - as a student I can use it for free here in Germany.
My experiences depend on the day. It never harms, that’s for sure. Usually it just helps me to understand how I feel. Sometimes for example I can’t get into a meditative state at all - that usually means I’m somewhat distracted today and should be careful about large decisions. Other times I just breathe and enjoy being. It isn’t particularly intense, but after opening the eyes I feel better and calmer. Only a few times could I really get into a meditative high - that was really amazing, not really comparable to anything else I’ve experienced. However, this high isn’t a goal for me at all - if it happens, it’s amazing; if not, that’s also okay.
Tl;Dr - sometimes I meditate, when I feel like it. It usually gives good results and helps me to recognize how I feel.
